Fit to print
Guru, Mika Apichatsakol, Published on 29/01/2016
» Sometimes, for the sake of appearing in-the-loop, we self-proclaimed fashionistas pass around empty comments like, "Print is in." You can plug virtually in any subject there and the statement would still ring true. Nothing is ever out of fashion, only perhaps how it's styled. That's why we'd like to supply you with a more evidence to corroborate the fact that "print is in" in 2016.
Down to earth
Guru, Napamon Roongwitoo, Published on 29/01/2016
» There is something about having greenness in your home. No, we're not talking about propping up your Christmas tree a few weeks a year. Green is one of the most soothing colours (more so when it's on a traffic light) and, being in the centre of the spectrum, the colour of balance.
#FuneralTalk
Guru, Published on 29/01/2016
» My grandfather passed away when I was eight, and while I can't remember much about his funeral, I remember thinking all of my aunties looked a bit odd without their usual make-up and hairdos. They told me they weren't allowed to dress up while mourning.
Where there's smoke...
Guru, Jarupat Buranastidporn, Published on 29/01/2016
» If you need proof as to why Bangkok is just as deserving of the "foodie capital" title as Hong Kong and Singapore, pay Il Fumo at visit. Powerhouse trio Choti Leenutaphong, Debby Tang and chef Luca Appino, responsible for Bottega's nostalgic comfort and exceeding our cocktail expectations at Vesper, are now making us swoon over charcoal-grilled and dry-aged beef. The restaurant has chosen to keep the original facade of a beautiful house dating back to the 1950s, in which descendants of King Rama IV resided. The interior, however, is all about subdued colours, and minimalistic, contemporary decor. Fitting, we thought, with the rather purist approach to cuisine, which is heavily focused on ingredients and cutting-edge techniques. There is a separate bar area, dimly lit, well-stocked and decked out in dark wood, reminiscent of treasured locales the likes of Bar Hemingway at The Ritz Paris and Dry Martini Bar in Barcelona.

Serenity to a tea

» Chan & Yupa Tearoom on Sukhumvit Soi 10 is an escape from urban hustle and bustle, offering a full-on menu with a side of serenity through its beautifully kept garden and birdsong.
Doni Nacho a no go
Guru, Adam Kohut, Published on 29/01/2016
» We spied the Doni Nacho stand at the woefully unattended "Love Is All Around" market at K Village on Sunday. As a Texan and an American and a disgusting glutton, the very idea of nachos makes me swoon.
